EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. –The New York Giants scored 10 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to pull out a 20-17 victory over the Dolphins Sunday at MetLife Stadium.

The Dolphins scored on their first two drives of the game and led 14-3 until the Giants drove downfield in the closing seconds of the half to cut the deficit to 14-10. The Miami offense could muster only a 40-yard field goal by Dan Carpenter after halftime.

The game had no turnovers until Corey Webster picked off Matt Moore to snuff out the Dolphins’ last drive with 1:44 remaining.

Miami is now 0-7. With St. Louis holding a big lead over New Orleans, the Dolphins and Indianapolis (0-7) are the only remaining winless teams.

While the Miami defense shut down the Giants running game, the absence of injured Vontae Davis, sidelined by a hamstring injury, was felt keenly in the passing game, which had allowed Eli Manning to complete 30-of-42 passes for 342 yards.

Both of Miami’s touchdowns came on 1-yard runs, the first by little-used Steve Slaton and the second on a fourth-down keeper by Matt Moore.

The Dolphins had only seven touchdowns in six games coming into the game and hadn’t scored on consecutive drives all season. But they looked polished in driving 66 yards in 10 plays to their first score and 90 yards in 12 plays for their second.

Moore was particularly sharp, not only hitting 8-of-11 passes for also scrambling five times for 31 yards. Reggie Bush led the rushing attack with 46 yards on six carries, including a 35-yarder that set up the second TD.

The Giants’ only scoring until the closing seconds of the half was a 25-yard field goal by Lawrence Tynes.

But after a Miami punt, Eli Manning drove his team 84 yards in 13 plays, Manning hitting Mario Manningham for the score on a 6-yard pass with 12 seconds remaining.

Slaton’s TD was his first as a Dolphin. Slaton had only one carry as a Dolphin coming into the game but figures to play a much more prominent role today with Daniel Thomas sidelined by a nagging hamstring injury.

Davis, guard Richie Incognito (ankle) and running back Daniel Thomas (hamstring) were all out for Miami. Nate Garner was doing a good job in Incognito’s spot.

The Dolphins moved crisply downfield on their first drive and were helped by a pass interference penalty on Giants’ cornerback Aaron Ross, who was caught blatantly holding Brian Hartline as he headed into the own zone. That put the ball at the 1 and Slaton took it in from there.

The Giants reached the Miami 35 before its first drive stalled, Eli Manning missing on a fourth-and-8 pass into the end zone.
